[order_calculator]Topic: To Torture or Not to Torture
Note: In order to fulfill this assignment, you need to have read the Group Discussion Board Forum 2 Instructions and the following chapters from Holmes: chs. 4–7, 14. If you have not done so, please stop and read that material.
For your thread, post an answer to the following 2 questions with at least 350 words:
From your understanding of Holmes’ discussions, explain how each of the following theories might answer the question: utilitarianism, Kantian duty-based ethics, virtue ethics, and Christian-principle based ethics.
Select the theory you think is the appropriate one to take in this case and explain why.
For your reply, locate a member of your group with whom you disagree and tell them why you disagree with them with at least 200 words. The disagreement could be over which view they took or their understanding of the other views.
Here is an example of a student writing on this topic.
From the Utilitatian perspective, the right thing to do would be to torture anyone if it means saving the lives of the multitude. I think this because the utilitarian wants to get the maximum benefit for the most possible people. On the other hand, the Christian principle based person could look at this and think that it would be cruel to torture this person and would be in direct violation of the ethics. They could argue that we are to “love others as ourselves” and this supercedes the needs of the many that could or would die. A Kantian duty-based person may say that a person should “always be treated as end and not just as means.” In other words, should be treated by a moral code or duty. The virtue ethic perspective would say that the reason behind the morally correct choice is what matters. They may say that since you would be torturing to save many it could be justified, or they may say that the information could been obtained in another way.
I really have a difficult time with this example. I am conflicted in what is right or wrong, good or bad with this. On one hand I feel as though as I Christian I should love my enemy no matter what harm they may cause. I should turn the other cheek so to speak. But as a person and a father I feel this overwhelming need to do whatever it takes to protect the people I love. I would say that more than anything I would fall in the utilitarian classification for this one. I think that torturing one person who has knowledge and intent to harm many is justified. I think that he forfeited his rights as loving human being when he plotted an attack against a country. I think there is also a difference between a stupid decision and planned attack on hundreds of people. This person will still get off easier if he were just tortured than if he had killed hundreds of innocent people. We should love people in general, but I cannot let someone purposely harm people knowing that I could have prevented it.

[order_calculator]Introduction: Over the course of the semester, we have look at and analyzed some state statutes ad
local ordinances which range from silly to absurd. However, trying to ascertain the reason for and
current validity of these statutes gives us a valuable understanding of the legislative process at the state
and local level. We can divide these types of law into two categories: (1) just plain silly; and (2) laws
that may have been useful when they were enacted, but due societal changes or merely the passage of
time, they are just outmoded and useless.
Assignment: Your assignment is:
Find three (3) statutes or ordinances that fit (in your opinion) into each of the two categories above.
Please provide a copy of the statute and an EXACT CITATION to the state or municipal code where the
text of the statute can be found.
Prepare a summary of each statute.
You must then choose one statute from each category and attempt to ascertain the reason for its
enactment. (HINT: it is usually easier to find out the reasons behind the passage of a statute by a town
or city legislative body. You can always call the town clerk and ask them. They always know the inside
scoop and they love to share that information with anyone willing to listen).
Prepare a six (6) to eight (8) page paper summarizing the results of your research. Please attach copies
of the statute or ordinance. These copies are NOT to be included in your page count. Only the citation,
summary of the statute, and explanation of the reasons behind enactment of the state counts toward
the length of the paper.

[order_calculator]City Hospital is located in the heat of a large Midwestern city. It is one of five major hospitals in the areas and has recently built a small addition for treating well-known patients, such as professional football players, top company executives, and signing stars. Visiting or local celebrities always choose City Hospital if they need treatment.
City Hospital has about 1,200 hospital beds and employees 4,500 individuals, including about 40 patient escorts. The job of patient escort is a rather simple one, requiring only minimal training and no special physical talents. When patients need to be moved from one location to another, patient escorts are summoned to assist in the move. If the move is only a short distance, however, a nurse or orderly can move the patient. Of particular importance is the fact that patient escorts almost always take patients who are being discharged from their hospital room to the front door of the hospital. A wheelchair is always used, even if the patient is able to walk unassisted. Thus, the typical procedure is for the nurse to call for a patient escort; the escort gets a wheelchair and goes to the patient’s room, assists the patient into the wheelchair, picks up the patient’s belongings, wheels the patient down to the hospital’s front door to his or her car in the parking lot, and returns to the work station.
The job of patient escort is critical to the hospital since the escort is always the last hospital representative the patient sees, and hence has a considerable influence on the patient’s perception of the hospital. Of approximately 40 escorts, about three-fourths are men, and one-forth are women. Most are high school graduates in their early twenties. Some, particularly those on the early morning shift, are attending college at night and working for the hospital to earn money to pay college expenses. Four of the escorts are older women who had previously served as hospital volunteers and then decided to become full-time employees instead. Turnover among patient escorts is quite good, and as a result, another 25 percent of the escorts typically transfer to other jobs in the hospital each year. Thus, about half of the patient escorts need to be replaced annually.
The hospital follows a standard procedure when hiring patient escorts. When a vacancy occurs, the HR department reviews the file of applications of individuals who have applied for the patient escort job. Usually the file contains at least 20 applications because the pay for the job is good, the work easy, and few skills are required. The top two or three applicants are asked to come to the hospital for interviews. Typically, the applicants are interviewed first by the HR department and then by the patient escort supervisor. The majority of those interviewed know some other employees of the hospital, so the only reference check is a call to these employees. Before being hired, applicants are required to take physical exams given by hospital doctors.
Every new escort attends an orientation program the first day on the job. This is conducted by the member of the hospital’s HR department. The program consists of a complete tour of the hospital; a review of all the hospital’s HR policies, including a description of its promotion, compensation, and disciplinary policies; and a presentation of the hospital’s mission and philosophy. During this orientation session, employees are told that the hospital’s image in the community is of major importance and that all employees should strive to maintain and enhance this image through their conduct. After orientation, all patient escorts receive on the job training by their immediate supervisor.
During the last two years, the hospital has experienced a number of problems with patient escorts, which have had a adverse effect on the hospital’s image. Several patients have complained to the hospital administration that they were treated rudely, or in some cases roughly, by one or more patient escorts. Some complained that they were ordered around or scolded by an escort during the discharge process. Others stated that their escorts were careless when wheeling them out of the hospital to their cars. One person reported that an escort carelessly tipped him over. All escorts are required to wear identification tags, but patients usually can’t remember the escort’s name when complaining to the hospital. Additionally, the hospital usually has difficulty determining which escort served which patient because escorts often trade patients. Finally, even when the hospital can identify the offending escort, the employee can easily deny any wrongdoing. He or she often encounters that patients are generally irritable as a result of their illness and hence are prone to complain even the slightest provocation.
At the hospital administrator’s request, the HR manager asked the chief supervisor of patient escorts, the head of the staffing section within the HR department, and the assistant HR director to meet with her to review the entire procedure used to select patient escorts. It was hoped that a new procedure could be devised that would eliminate the hiring of rude, insulting, or careless patient escorts.
During the meeting, a number of suggestions were made as to how the selection procedure might be improved. Criticisms of the present system were also voiced. The chief supervisor of patient escorts argued that the problem with the hospital’s present system is that the application blank is void of any really useful information. He stated that the questions that really give insights into the employee’s personality are no longer on the application blank. He suggested that applicants be asked about their hobbies, outside activities, and their personal likes and dislikes on the application blank. He also suggested that each applicant be asked to submit three letters of recommendation from people who know the applicant well. He wanted these letters to focus on the prospective employee’s personality, particularly the applicant’s ability to remain friendly and polite at all times.
The assistant HR director contended that the hospital’s interviewing procedure should be modified. He observed that, during the typical interview, little attempt is made to determine how the applicant reacts under stress. He suggested that if applicants were asked four or five stress-producing questions, the hospital might be in a better position to judge their ability to work with irritable patients.
The head of the staffing section noted that patient escorts require little mental or physical talent and agreed that the crucial attribute escorts need is the ability to always be courteous and polite. He wondered whether an attitude test could be developed that would measure the applicant’s predisposition toward being friendly, helpful, sensitive, and so on. He suggested that a job analysis could be done on the patient escort position to determine those attitudes that are critical to being a successful patient escort. When the job analysis was complete, questions could be developed that would measure these critical attributes. The test questions could be given to the hospital’s present patient escorts to determine whether the test accurately distinguishes the best escorts from the worst. The head of the staffing section realized that many of the questions might need to be eliminated or changed, and if the test appeared to show promise, it would probably need to be revalidated in order to meet government requirements. He felt, however, that a well-designed test might be worth the effort and should at least be considered.
The meeting ended with all four participants agreeing that the suggestions of trying to develop an attitude test was probably the most promising. The assistant HR Director and chief supervisor of patient escorts stated that they would conduct a thorough job analysis covering the patient escort position and develop a list of attitudes that are critical to its success. A second meeting would then be scheduled to prepare the actual test questions.
